Andromeda DavisAstrology isn’t just about major life events. In fact, it’s much more useful as a tool to help navigate your everyday life. Here are just a few ways that astrology can benefit you!
Get in Tune with the Moon
The Moon has a major influence on everyday life. And best of all, you don’t need to do any complicated math to figure out Moon phases. You can find plenty of free calendars and charts online–or you could just look up at the night sky!
In general, the New Moon is a good time for new beginnings. Starting a new job, beginning a new relationship, or even trying out a new hobby–they’re all more likely to grow into success if you work in sync with the Moon.
The Full Moon is a time for projects to wrap up and relationships to wind down. It’s also the right time to set your intentions for how you want your life to change in the coming lunar cycle.
Master Your Sign
Before you try to learn all about the 12 signs of the Zodiac, focus on your sign. Understanding yourself is the most important project of your life, and astrology can help with that.
For example, as a Gemini, I know that my energy tends to be very scattered. If I don’t watch myself, I can flit from one exciting idea to the next without following through on any of it. But since I know that about myself, I can work to limit the negative expression of my star sign and enhance the positive aspects of being a Gemini.
Once you understand your own sign, you can move on to studying the signs of people close to you. You’ll be amazed at how much easier–and more effective–it is to work with people’s natures instead of against them.
Use Daily Horoscopes to Light Your Path
When you read your horoscope in the morning, you subconsciously apply the advice to the issues that are most important in your life. You might not even realize you’ve been worried or seeking guidance. Your intuitive mind forges that link before you consciously process it.
Reading Tarot is very similar. It’s a combination of the cards, your own intuition, and the circumstances of your life that tell the full story. You can use any form of divination–including astrology–to help understand your unconscious desires and shape your life.
Even if you don’t fully believe that the planets and stars can directly influence us, your everyday life can still benefit from the practice of astrology. Why not give it a shot?
